Author has written 25 stories for Life, Nature, Thriller, General, Horror, Essay, Supernatural, and War.

I am Dimpy, a Harry Potter and Bollywood obsessed, young writer. There is more to me than what meets the eye, and a lot of this can be found in my work. Currently, I am uncertain of exactly what I wish to do in my life, though I do have time to make such a decision. The only thing that I am sure I want to do is write, not necessarily as my only profession, and eventually publish some of my work. One of the main problems with this is that I often end up abandoning my large-scale writing projects. Hopefully, I will soon be able to overcome this.

Some of my other interests include psychology, history, spirituality (though not particullarly in a religious way), tennis, reading, music, and humor. I also love learning, so criticisms in my work will be appreciated, though compliments are utterly wonderful as well. I shall surely return the favor.

"Be careful of your thoughts.. they will become words
Be careful of your words.. they will become actions
Be careful of your actions.. they will become habits
Be careful of your habits.. they will become character
Be careful of your charcter..
It will become Destiny."
